WE DO NOT REMEMBER THE DAYS, WE REMEMBER THE MOMENTS

June 27th Melissa has a Birthday, we are also coming up on 4 years this August since the accident. These dates in time are moments of reflection . I have been working on a scrapbook of Melissa life, she left behind shoe boxes and shoe boxes of pictures . Melissa was never with out a camera if not maybe two. I sometimes find it hard to believe that I am not finished or any further along than I am with the scrapbook.

Memories are perhaps the best gift of all!


Though these dates are hard, and serve as a reminder she is gone they do hold some of the best memories. God has never left us and our strength comes from him, as we continue to seek his face in all things, he continues to show us where he was in Melissa's life and himself in our lives now.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY SWEETIE!!
Love ya,
Mom

SOMETHING TO THINK ABOUT

I know that I haven't blogged in a while. In my little brain I always think that I need a picture to go with the post, I know thats not so.......with this post there is no picture, only the one you might see in your mind!

Now here is a thought:

On Earth, gold is a precious metal and very valuable;

In Heaven, it's pavement.

THE ENDING

Well last night was the last 24 for this season. We had a small get together here at the house grilled burgers and watched the last two hours. (That would be 5 die hard 24 fans) Anyway this season has not been one of there best....but always the last hour "kicks"

:( :( :( Well not this year! It's rumored that next year they are going to change up the format, they need to don't know if I can sit through another season like this one.

If you are a 24 fan let me know what you thought about the ending.

DEWEY'S NEW FRIEND

Dewey is our new addition to our family. A rescue dog with issues (many issues) Dewey was thrown in the trash as a young puppy he was found right before Katrina and then lived in a kennel day in and day out.

The girls at work started loving on him and working with him but know one could give him a home, so about a month ago I brought him home to see how he worked in with our group here at the house. He has done quite well.

This is a picture of Jp working at home one morning with the help of Dewey! We love the Dew Man!!

FAT BOY 5K RUN

I know that JP has already put this up on his web page but for those of you that may read my blog but not JP's this is for you.

JP runs this race every year, the super clydesdale is one of the divisions for over 200lbs. Jp ran the race in 26 minutes and 30 seconds winning the Super Clydesdale division. FIRST PLACE BABY!! OH YEAH!

SOMETHING TO THINK ABOUT

"Sometimes you have to watch somebody love something before you can love it yourself. It's as if they are showing you the way"

PETUNIA

Let me just tell you we have had alot and when I say alot (15-18) animals over the last 14 years.
I would tell people you had to love Children and Animals if you came to our house or don't come.
Our home was always open to my children's friends and Melissa love for animals well need I say more.

Above is a picture of JP and Petunia. Petunia is 13 years old and we have had her since JP was 10 years old , she has been very sick and about two weeks ago we thought she might not make it :( The ole' girl has seen the other animals come and go. Most of our pets all had something not right with them and that was why we took most of them. Petunia grew up with JP and Melissa and it will be a very sad day in the Brumfield household the day she goes.

However her new treatment is working great and hope to have her a few more years.

WALK WITH GOD

Walk with God and you cannot mistake the road,
you have infallible wisdom to direct you,
permanent love to comfort you,
and eternal power to defend you.

We Had A Blast!!

The Mardis Paws parade was Great!! We had soooo much fun, and Wags also did great, came home with only one LSU outfit. We never got to leave our booth so the pictures I have are of the people that came buy the booth.

If you have never been to have to plan on going next year.
Enjoy

ONLY IN LOUISIANA !!

Ok, so it is Saturday afternoon my Mom calls me said she needed to run to the store and would I like to go. When Mom arrived at the house I asked her if she would mind going to the large Walmart on O'Neal I needed to pick up some sewing notions.

While in the produce department my son JP walks up to say hello he had seen us walk in. I asked him what he was up to , and he replied waiting for the parade to start. Well I asked him at least two more time because I wasn't sure I understood what he meant.

Yep it was a parade alright, right thru the Store, cups , beads, and candy and not to be undone a King and Queen!! ONLY IN LOUISIANA!!

THE DOGGIE DOOR AND COLD WEATHER !!

10:00pm and all is not quite, JP calls his Dad something in his bathroom and it has a white tail. They get a close look and a mouse it is!! Best guess is that with the cold weather he came thru the doggie door.

THE CHASE IS ON........sorry that the pictures are not the best but it was very hard to hold still. In the hall Dudley standing on the trap with his weapon and you can barely see the back end of Damsel sniffing behind the trunk at the end of the hall. Down the hall to the living room and in to the conservatory. Rebel the cat has our backs when JP finds him hiding up in a window , and with one swift swing of the (plastic) bat the critter has dropped to the floor and between Dudley , JP, and Damsel they have chased him out the door.

MARDI GRAS FOR OUR TROOPS

Mardi Gras theme Bunko this month we all brought things to fill bags that we will be sending off to

James's platoon. I understand that 40 men are in the platoon and the bags will be stuffed with Mardi Gras moon pies, Zapp's, beads, cups ect........ Things that are Madri Gras or from this area, also some of the ladies wrote notes to the men to let them know how thankful we are that they do what they do!!

And we finished off the night playing "left, right, center" (great game)

24 !!

I must admit that I am hooked! I love this show, and can't wait until every January for the new season to start. And yes I will not answer the phone, the door nor will I spend any time with you JP during the time this show is on!!

JP, nice try this morning with the "Cox is sorry for any inconvience this may cause , but we will be off the air from 7-9pm " It was one of your better acting jobs.....almost had me.

But nothing will stop JACK!!!
